In the past, Eve was not interested in spending money, and he could not like the things he bought for half a day.
For the first time today, she felt that spending money was interesting. Seeing Qiao Ji's surprised expression, she felt very interesting.
Eve was still thinking about taking Qiao Ji to order a few pairs of shoes.
"Young miss, it's already lunchtime.”
" If we don't set off now, we won't be able to make it to the afternoon tea party of the Marquise's wife," Zuo Qian reminded in a soft voice.”
The venue wasn't close and they had to leave the city.
"Let's go then." Eve's pretty face showed a trace of dissatisfaction, and she walked away with her long legs.
" Phew…" Qiao Ji heaved a sigh of relief and followed.
Even if he could afford it in the future, it would still be stressful to accept too many good things.
Black Hammer the dwarf sent them out of the blacksmith shop." Miss Eve," he shouted," welcome to bring more people."”
Endin came forward again and smiled." Miss Eve, are you going to Marchioness Mellor's afternoon tea party?"”
Before Eve got into the carriage, he glanced at the little handmaiden with his golden eyes.
"Yes." Zuo Qian received a message from the young miss,"You should hurry up and deal with it."
Ending's mouth twitched. He forced a smile and said," I want to go too. We'll go together."”
He roared in his heart,'This stinky woman, she doesn't even want to talk to me?'
"Yes, the road is there." Zuo Qian said softly.
"…" Ending's face darkened. He could no longer smile.
" Pfft…" Qiao Ji almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
The little handmaiden was also black-bellied, and her words were also irritating.
"Zuo Qian, hurry up." Eve shouted coldly in the carriage.
"Yes." The little handmaiden playfully stuck out her tongue.
The convoy set off again.
The carriage of Earl Haiba's family followed behind.
George and Ferlin rode side by side in front.
Qiao Ji leaned over and asked curiously," Uncle Ferlin, who is that Ending?”
"Ending is the heir of Earl Haiba's family.”
Ferlin thought for a while and said calmly," Earl Haiba's family is considered a rising noble family. Twenty years ago, they annihilated one of the top ten pirate groups, and was only granted the title of a third-class earl by the Empire.”
"Ten great pirate groups?" Qiao Ji asked in confusion.
Ferlin explained simply," It's ten large-scale pirate alliances. They intercept ships and even dare to attack port cities when they're crazy.”
"This Earl Haiba is quite powerful. He was able to destroy a pirate alliance.”This was the first time Qiao Ji had heard of someone being conferred a title of nobility based on merit.
"Powerful? That might not be the case." Ferlin shook his head in disdain.
"Could there be something hidden inside?" Qiao Ji's eyes lit up.
"I also heard that Earl Haiba's family is the group of pirates who came ashore.”Ferlin shrugged.
"Ah?" Qiao Ji was stunned.
"It's just a rumor, but what they do is not much different from what pirates do.”
Ferlin said indignantly," Earl Haiba's family is very ruthless. They have made a lot of black gloves to steal money.”
'Black Gloves' was a general term for the dark forces that the nobles secretly supported.
"Slave business?" Qiao Ji asked sensitively.
" Yes, the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, which is permanently stationed in the colosseum, is the White Gloves of Earl Haiba's family. They are used to digest the slaves captured by Black Gloves.”Ferlin said in a deep voice.
'White Gloves' was the name of the force that the nobles supported on the surface.
" The Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce…" Qiao Ji's face darkened.
It turned out that the enemy who turned him into a slave was the family of Earl Haiba.
Qiao Ji had finally found the enemy behind the scenes.
Originally, he wanted to investigate his enemies and take revenge after obtaining his freedom. Now, he found out by chance.
"What's wrong with you?" Ferlin sensed the youth's strange behavior and only reacted after he finished speaking.
He emphasized," Don't be rash.”
"Uncle Ferlin, I'm not stupid." Qiao Ji gritted his teeth and took a deep breath.
If he stabbed Endin Haiba to death now, he could only start fleeing. He would not be able to complete his revenge.
The real revenge was to destroy the Haiba family and make them slaves, so that they could experience the life of a slave until they died.
"It's good that you know. You're still young." Ferlin was really afraid that the young man would do something stupid.
"Uncle, do you know who the person behind the colosseum is?”Qiao Ji thought of the Experimentals he saw that night.
He still had to think about how to send the letter to Diana safely. If it was sent through the channels of the underground forces, it was very likely that someone would open the letter and peek at it.
"I don't know. He's a powerful big shot.”
Ferlin warned in a deep voice," To be able to make so many nobles 'white gloves obey the rules, you can imagine what kind of big shot he is. He's not someone that small fries like you and me can investigate. Be careful not to lose your life."”
"Uncle, you're too nervous. I'm just asking.”Qiao Ji said with a faint smile.
His handsome face under the mask was cold and filled with killing intent.
"Before you do anything, think about the young miss.”
Ferlin was silent for a while before saying," You don't want the young miss to be sad, do you?”
He had been young before and knew that he was impulsive and stubborn when he was young.
"Yes." Qiao Ji looked back at the carriage.
He had to admit that the young miss had a bad temper and was a little possessive, but she was really good to him.
"If you really want revenge, then you have to endure and find a chance to kill.”A complicated look flashed in Ferlin's eyes.
"Yes, I will." Qiao Ji nodded.
He could tell that Uncle Ferlin was a man with a story.
Qiao Ji saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy, so he changed the topic and asked," Uncle, what is a Treasured Artifact?”
Ferlin replied," A precious artifact is a very powerful tool.”
"Just like that?" Qiao Ji's face was full of shock. It was as if he had said nothing.
" It's impossible to explain."
Ferlin said in a relaxed tone," When you have the chance to see it, you'll understand what it's like.”
"You're just patronizing me." Qiao Ji snapped.
"Yes, yes, yes…"
